Mind Mapping.... "What I’m trying to do when I make a mind map: I’m trying to construct a 2-D memory palace on paper. By making notes in a non-linear manner, by arranging images and words in space, I can SEE connections that would otherwise be impossible with just words written in sequence." from: http://www.austinkleon.com/2008/07/15/mind-maps-pictures-and-words-in-space/

This is an asynchronous tool for creating mindmaps... you cannot have multiple users logged in and manipulating this map... but it DOES have potential in small groups clustered around a computer working together, or on a projected image in larger groups.
